One of the key concepts highlighted in Unit 3 in our Everyday Math curriculum is patterns. This is a concept which encompasses a lot of our learning, actually. Patterns are everywhere! During math this week, students explored visual patterns and patterns in numbers. A few examples of this are featured in the photos below...
 |
Students explored patterns on the 100 grid., including counts by 2s, 5s, and 10s. |
 |
| We explored odd and even numbers in multiple ways, including an activity called "Grab the Chips". Students took chips and counted them in pairs to see if there was an "odd one out." If the chips could not be counted in pairs, the number is odd. Stay tuned for a video clip of a new song students learned last week about the pig and cow named Even and Odd! :-) |
 |
| In the exploration station, students could use stamps, pattern blocks, or unifix cubes to create patterns. |
 |
| The interactive whiteboard helped with creating and extending patterns with shape and color. We also talked about labeling our patterns. |
 |
| Ask your child what patterns we discovered in our calendar! |
 |
| Can your child label this pattern with letters? |
